Detailed product description
The Microtech Scarab II Gen III Executive 1177-1T automatic knife is a flagship OTF model designed for maximum performance, extreme durability, and professional deployment. It is one of the most robust constructions in the Microtech portfolio, created under the leadership of Tony Marfione.
The Scarab II model has long been regarded as a heavy-duty OTF knife that pushes the limits of automatic knife performance. In the Gen III Executive version, it brings a cleaner design without the classic grip inlays, ensuring a more elegant look while maintaining maximum functionality.
The dominant feature is the Tanto (T/E) blade with a DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) finish, offering extreme durability, high surface hardness, and minimal reflections. This shape is ideal for piercing and hard-use tasks.
As soon as you pick up the knife, its massive construction stands out immediately. The Scarab II is significantly more robust than the Ultratech or UTX-85 and is designed for demanding conditions where reliability is critical.
The blade is made from premium M390MK® steel (Böhler M390), which offers top-tier edge retention, high corrosion resistance, and long-term performance.
The Gen III OTF mechanism uses a redesigned internal system (the so-called “dual fuel drivetrain”), ensuring an extremely strong, smooth, and consistent action when deploying and retracting the blade.
The Scarab II Gen III Executive is a knife without compromise — maximum strength, maximum reliability.
